Read our SSM Summer newsletter

The countdown to this year’s Annual Scientific Meeting hosted by the University of Liverpool is underway and this issue of the newsletter has a great round up of some of the events to look forward to.

This includes Liverpool-focused social activities, our two keynote speeches by Professor Clare Bambra and Prof Susan Michie, our three Expert-led Workshops and our plenary panels on Preventing Childhood Obesity and Climate Emergency: determinants, impacts and solutions. We’ve also got a showcase of the Top 10 scoring oral presentations that you can look forward to seeing at the conference.

The rest of the newsletter features our handpicked blogs to read and introduces the new SSM ECR blog series that celebrates early career researchers.
